If you go back to my early planting videos, you'll see that I used to top dress with gypsum at planting, but the gypsum attracts ants sometimes they haul it away, but other times they move in the mound. Moving forward, I plan to only use gypsum in the winter as a flush that gets washed into the soil by the rain. ✌️🥑 Thanks for watching
I've watched videos from growers who work with MENDEZ in Mexico, and they show an upright compact tree with a slight reach. The nodes are stacked tighter than original HASS, and it's a tree that is highly precocious, stunted by its determination to always set flowers. It'll want to get away from you and grow big once established, but they shape heavily down there, leaving 4 limbs one for each cardinal point open center and constantly prune for production.
@tomaso6780 fruit size is definitely smaller, but you get quantity and haven't really worked too close with Sharwill or Sir Prize, and the trees that I have seen are underperfomers here in the 831
Nice video, really nice to see what you are doing in your area, thanks for sharing!
Thank you for watching this is at 2100 ft in elevation. ✌️🥑
Have you ever or do you ever use Gypsum to breakdown the clay soil?

I heard Carmen flowers 3 time a year how would you compare it to the GEM, Sharwil, Sri Prize for size production and taste for backyard tree
As well as size of the fruit and mangability
